Talk but not walk?

Don't worry about it or you'll get stuck in that spin as well.

glupson, here's an example

Back when I was a consulting engineer for Turner Broadcasting there was a group of engineers that I belonged to that made up a team to work on new product and theories. Everything we did had a meaning to it (an end goal). One of the interesting projects was the development of the PZM. The PZM is a boundary effect microphone (pressure zone microphone). Brent, Martin, myself and the other guys had different ideas as to what to call this technology with regards to the performance and use. It was somewhat a new territory but had a huge need and the applications would end up changing live stage production forever. At the end of the day we pretty much all understood that the name PZM worked as long as you attached it to some of the uses. I did not come up with PZM, but because of my using it and modifying the performance to suit different applications I ended up being able to incorporate my own names and uses. One of these being PZC (Pressure Zone Controlling). Both the PZM and the PZC are devices that deal with the boundary effect (laminar effect) and the Pressure Zones of the room. Could there have been other words? Yep. But these are the ones that stuck and got us to the next level. Finding words and theories plus the doing with some predictable consistency is how science is born.

But the main thing brings us back to needing the walk to explain the talk. If not the words can become a spin, as we have seen on this thread.

Prof, you need to think about slowing down buddy, the thread isn’t going anywhere. You are still very much being that Dog on the end of the Bone. This is causing you to troll tuning and myself. Your so set on that "aha caught you" moment that your getting angry and rambling all over the pages again.

Prof, your not going to win here because listeners are tuning as we speak in real time which is the proof of and for the hobby of listening. In other words your smelling of something fishy is probably because you have been wiping your nose with your freshly fish covered hands.

BTW I did have some delicious fish tonight from my favorite Cajun style chief here in Vegas, who also happens to have one of my systems. He made a dish for both me and Jay.

Oh and another btw, Prof I'm back to that only skimming over your posts, they're pretty much just repeating themselves and have no new content of interest. You smell something fishy bla bla bla, prof is insulted bla bla bla, he's the defender of audio forums bla bla bla, prof has no experience when it comes to tuning bla bla bla, prof only knows how to ask questions but can't produce answers bla bla bla, folks are tuning and enjoying it bla bla bla. Why are you even here Prof bla bla bla. I am actually officially bored to death with you, I can't even see your trolling as anything more than what it is. Dog an Bone though, that one has value.

Elizabeth, I stole your phrase "bla bla bla". That was another profound moment for me on this thread.

Also for those of you who are now tuning, I'm very happy for you. It's a real mind and door opener.

Sound engineers Ed Long and Ron Wickersham developed the concept of the PZM. "Pressure Zone Microphone"

“I was part of the class at Syn-Aud-Con that helped in the development of the PZM back in 1978. The technique was first shown to us by Ed Long and Ron Wickersham. We were all aware of the problems of reflected sound combining with direct sound to cause combing interference to the frequency response. Not only did PZMs eliminate that, it also gave any microphone 3dB more output. We were given tiny Knowles microphones and instructed to take them home and experiment with different configurations. Knowles made tiny omni, cardioid, and even bi-directional microphones.”

Any fib will eventually be caught out.

Yep, that would be them! A pretty fun time. It changed stage performances dramatically. We did a mixture of shotguns, PZM, wireless and hand held wireless and centipedes. The patterns up until then would leave holes in the performance, but using the floor and walls as the actual microphone was the beginning of a whole new way of tracking and EQing.

lol amg, so I'm taking it that you would like a pay stub from me of all the places I worked? Pretty weird dude!
